Flexible two-living-zone home near Midtown -- ideal for multigenerational living, long-term guest setup, work-from-home, or potential rental flexibility. Set on a .24-acre lot in North Raleigh, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath ranch-style home with 2,560 sq ft gives buyers something harder to find: true main-level living paired with a fully functional second setup downstairs. Three bedrooms are located on the main floor, including a primary suite with a fully renovated bath and zero-entry walk-in shower that feels clean, modern, and designed for real life. The kitchen is a standout. Fully renovated with granite counters, gas cooktop, stainless steel appliances, and soft-close cabinetry with smart storage throughout. It opens directly into a large family room and dining space, then flows out to an elevated deck with a built-in gas line for grilling--no propane tank runs required. Downstairs is where the flexibility really shows up. The full walk-out lower level includes its own private entrance, bedroom/flex room, full bath, office, and a large living area centered around a ventless gas fireplace capable of heating most of the home. It opens directly onto a covered patio and works equally well as an in-law suite, extended guest setup, private workspace, or potential income-producing space. Fresh interior and exterior paint keep everything feeling current. Hardwood flooring runs through the main living areas, multiple rooms feature new flooring, recessed lighting has been updated throughout, and there are no popcorn ceilings anywhere in sight. Storage is another pleasant surprise for a home of this era, with two outdoor sheds that convey plus plenty of interior storage space throughout. And then there's the location. Minutes to North Hills for restaurants, coffee shops, fitness studios, grocery options, nightlife, and Midtown events. Close to Shelley Lake Park with scenic paved trails, fishing access, playgrounds, and greenway connections. Optimist Park's pool, tennis courts, recreation center, and athletic facilities are also nearby. The flexibility is what makes this one memorable. Live upstairs, spread out downstairs, host long-term guests, create separation for work and life, or explore rental possibilities. Come experience how many ways this home can work for you.
